⚙️ ️Grammar

A. तुमको (tumko) — “to you”

तुमको (tumko) consists of:

• तुम (tum) — you (familiar form)
• को (ko) — a postposition marking, among other things, the recipient of an action

In this sentence, तुमको identifies the people receiving the Father's teaching.

With the verb सिखाना (sikhānā), Hindi commonly uses the construction:

किसी को कुछ सिखाना (kisī ko kuch sikhānā)

= To teach someone something.

Here:

• तुमको (tumko) — to you
• ज्ञान (jñān) — knowledge

The word order differs slightly from English:

तुमको अभी बाप ज्ञान सिखा रहे हैं।

Literally: “To you, now, the Father, knowledge, is teaching.”

Natural English: “The Father is teaching you knowledge right now.”

B. सिखा रहे हैं (sikhā rahe haiṃ) — Present continuous tense

This form expresses an action currently in progress.

सिखा sikhā Verb stem: teach

रहे rahe Continuous aspect

हैं Haiṃ Present auxiliary

Compare:

बाप ज्ञान सिखाते हैं।

Bāp jñān sikhāte haiṃ.

“The Father teaches knowledge.” (habitual action or general truth)

बाप ज्ञान सिखा रहे हैं।

Bāp jñān sikhā rahe haiṃ.

“The Father is teaching knowledge.” (action in progress)

Why रहे हैं (rahe haiṃ) instead of रहा है (rahā hai)?

Although बाप (bāp) refers to a single person, Hindi often uses plural grammatical forms to express respect.

This is called the honorific plural.

Therefore, रहे हैं expresses respect for the Father rather than indicating several fathers.

C. सिखाना (sikhānā) vs. सीखना (sīkhnā)

These two verbs are closely related but have different meanings.

Verb	Meaning
सीखना (sīkhnā)	To learn
सिखाना (sikhānā)	To teach, to make someone learn

Examples:

मैं ज्ञान सीख रहा हूँ।

Maiṃ jñān sīkh rahā hūṃ.

“I am learning knowledge.”

बाप मुझे ज्ञान सिखा रहे हैं।

Bāp mujhe jñān sikhā rahe haiṃ.

“The Father is teaching me knowledge.”

The verb सिखाना (sikhānā) is the causative form of सीखना (sīkhnā).

In other words:

• सीखना — to learn
• सिखाना — to cause someone to learn → to teach

This is a common pattern in Hindi verb formation.

D. अभी (abhī) — “now, right now”

अभी (abhī) emphasizes the present moment.

In this sentence, it does not merely indicate that the Father teaches knowledge. It emphasizes that this teaching is taking place now.

Compare:

बाप ज्ञान सिखाते हैं।

Bāp jñān sikhāte haiṃ.

“The Father teaches knowledge.”

बाप अभी ज्ञान सिखा रहे हैं।

Bāp abhī jñān sikhā rahe haiṃ.

“The Father is teaching knowledge right now.”

In the BK context, this distinction is especially meaningful.

🌱 Meaning in the BK Context

In the teachings of the Brahma Kumaris:

• बाप (bāp) — The spiritual Father, Shiv Baba.
• ज्ञान (jñān) — Spiritual knowledge, particularly knowledge of the soul, God, and the world cycle.
• अभी (abhī) — The present time, understood as the Confluence Age (संगमयुग — saṅgamyuga / saṅgamyug), during which the Father comes to impart this knowledge.

The sentence therefore emphasizes that the Father Himself is now teaching spiritual knowledge to souls.

According to the BK understanding, this knowledge is not merely passed down by human teachers. It originates directly from God.

The use of सिखा रहे हैं (sikhā rahe haiṃ) also highlights that this is an active, ongoing process of teaching.

✨ Simple Restatement

तुमको अभी बाप ज्ञान सिखा रहे हैं।

Tumko abhī bāp jñān sikhā rahe haiṃ.

“The Father is now teaching you spiritual knowledge.”

💡 Key takeaway: The construction किसी को कुछ सिखाना (kisī ko kuch sikhānā) means “to teach someone something,” while रहे हैं (rahe haiṃ) indicates an ongoing action and, in this sentence, also expresses respect for the Father.
